Increasing unemployment in Oberpullendorf: Exercise apprenticeships in abundance!

What is happening in the Oberpullendorf district? The current figures for unemployment ensure mixed feelings. As reported [meinzirk.at] (https://www.meinbezirk.at/oberpullendorf/c-lokales/Mehr-arbeitslose-aber-a- increased-more-fuer-apprentice_a7362733), the number of unemployed rose slightly at the end of May 2025. A total of 9,275 people are now reported to the AMS as unemployed or in training measures, which means an increase of 2.7 % compared to the previous year. The situation in the Stegersbach/Jennersdorf region, where there is an increase of 9.6 %, is particularly dramatic, the highest in comparison of the Burgenland regions.

In Oberpullendorf itself, the increase is relatively high 7.0 %. A focus should be on the groups that are particularly affected: women and young people under the age of 25. The number of unemployed women rose by 5.5 %, while the men only recorded an increase of 0.2 %. This development also affects young people particularly strongly with an increase of 6.9 %. In addition, long-term care (-7.1 %) and people with health mediation restrictions (+5.0 %) are also affected.
